: Two thousand three hundred and fifty-nine thunder in silence (13)

The atmosphere in Li Mansion’s mansion was extremely heavy. All the servants were gathered into the inner courtyard. At the gate of the outer courtyard, there was no empty man except for an old man sitting in a brown-red Taishi chair. The old man looked at Xiyuxie Flying, falling leaves and flowers, the once outstanding Li family, like the Jiangnan rain in front of it, blowing, no trace
　　
"Mr. Li, you are an old thing, make way for me!" An old woman with a crown of cold light appeared at the corner of the corridor, and her feet stumbled to the door. The old woman's face was graceful and noble, her face and Li Yuehua There are seven or eight points like this, several of Li's maids are standing in fright, and dare not move forward,
　　
Sitting firmly on a fuchsia Taishi chair, the old prime minister Li Tai, who was sitting on the back of the door, could only smile bitterly. When the other people in the family came, he could stare back with one look, but his wife who had been in bed for decades It’s useless to bulge your eyes. Li Yuehua is going to leave. Li Tai already knew in advance that the storm was surging up the Chaotang. The Litang suppressed the Chaotang for decades, and finally showed its sharp teeth to Li Jiazhan. The servants who didn’t dare to take a breath in their own atmosphere, suffocated and poured dirty water on Li’s home this time, unanimously saying that the defeat of Surabaya was due to the collusion within the Li family, which lied to Chaotang’s military expenses of 500,000 yuan, various The rumor has been spread throughout the whole city of Hangzhou, and Li valve had to show off his door to thank the guests, and showed a gesture of respect and introspection. Although Li Yuehua still has a layer of empire's special envoy, but how can this arrogance be followed like this Of insults,
　　
　　 "What are you doing! The person outside is no longer Li's family, and you can't open the door for her" Li Tai's face was cold and he grunted heavily.
　　
"She's my daughter, even if it's not Li's family! You old thing, others pointed at Li's nose in the court and scolded. You just avoid hiding as a tortoise, now the daughter comes to say goodbye, you are on the shelf , You’re afraid of others saying, I’m not afraid. You let the door open.
The old lady walked towards the door, she had to lift the door bar on the door for more than ten seconds, but she couldn’t lift it at all. The door bar was like a door. Melted together, take a closer look. It really blended together,
　　
　　 "Li Tai!" The old woman was angry and turned to look at Li Tai.
　　
　　 "No more effort! The door bar was nailed to death by my life!"
　　
　　Li looked at his old wife and sighed helplessly. This wife is not easy to deal with. The real goalkeeper girl was a stubborn temper when she was married back. She was very heavy-handed and had a strong goalkeeper. When she was sixteen years old, she once hunted a mountain bear alone. Making a bed with mountain bear skin, but scared himself to death. After becoming the head of the house, this hall became the hunting ground for this woman, who dare not accept it. First, I will say, if not, how can I sit firmly in the top position of the Li valve woman, make the Li family arbitrarily big and small, make mistakes, and scare them like shaking like a sieve. If I don't say it, I'm afraid it will be possible to find an axe to smash the door open.
　　
　　Li Tai's voice paused and his face was very calm. Ning Sheng said, "If Yuehua is a boy, you have to keep her in Central Biya, I won't say a word, but she is a woman, and staying in Central Biya will only harm her. This time the emperor seems to let go After passing the Li family, it was only for most families. In fact, it was already arranged in the secret palace.
　　
　　 "Na Yue Huawei Princess?"
　　
The old woman was stunned for a moment, and she looked at Tai Li with a stunned look, and there was a sneer in the corner of her mouth. She didn’t want to say,
This is not your heart’s intention? Last time, if it wasn’t for the Zhang clan to make trouble, Yuehua was already a concubine now. Now! If you can enter the palace as a concubine, can your Li family prosper for decades?"
　　
"This is not the same as before. Last time I entered the palace, my Li family was just like the sun, and my phoenix must be Fengming Jiuxiao!" Li Tai looked at the rain falling like a white silk thread in the sky, and his voice said coldly, "But this time I entered the palace , But it’s not Fengming Jiuxiao. It’s not like the phoenix is ​​better than a chicken. It’s called Guifei, which is actually a hostage.

　　
　　 "Since this is the case, other families..." The old woman hesitated to ask
　　
"Marrying a concubine is a good thing for many families of the third and fourth grades, but it is a good thing to upgrade the ranks. The family has died so much in Dijing, and naturally it needs a new family to go up!" Rarely, Li Tai's mouth showed a deep meaning. He glanced at the sky calmly, and said with a condensed voice, "The grace of the Son of Heaven, I don't know how many people are expecting. As long as the news comes out of the palace, these small families will naturally move. If you want to enter the palace, there will be a palace. If you want to let the emperor see it as soon as you enter the palace, you will naturally have to give money up and down. As long as the emperor likes it, an order will immediately increase the rank of the door, and it will work better than anything. Those are already the second rank. Those who want their daughters to avoid the election of concubines in the palace also have to pay for their money. The sum of the money is not a small number!"
　　
"For the emperor, choosing a concubine is just one or two hundred more women in the palace. Whatever the relationship, they are all beautiful women, whether they like it or not, it is also good to look pleasing to the eye. The problem is that the families behind these women are rich. People, how many families have hoarded their wealth for many years, and the water has rolled into the palace, and the money spent in the palace secret fighting is not less than a war."
　　
　　 "The ultimate loser is naturally the object of the emperor's surgery. Invisiblely, the financial plight of the empire is spread to the heads of the families!"
　　
"The imperial wealth has been nearly exhausted. There are so many things brought from the emperor Jing, large-scale repairs to the palace, the recruitment of nearly 200,000 troops, equipment, large sums of money, and the deployment of the Luzhou Army is already the emperor's own private warehouse. The Luzhou Army suffered a fiasco in Yanzhou, and more than 20,000 people were killed and injured and needed to appease compensation. This is a lot of money. "Li Taisheng stopped, he continued." Originally I wanted to wait for the quarterly tax of the Dijing Plain to be relieved, but the prairie people went south to Dijing Plains, I’m afraid I won’t be able to collect the taxes. The emperor’s idea is to find a way out of the rich family. The best way is to marry a concubine.

　　
　　 "It's so rich to marry a concubine!"
　　
The old woman's face was shocked. Although she didn't know what the relationship between marrying the concubine and the imperial finances and taxes was, she still knew her old man. He suddenly announced his resignation from the prime minister this time and completely ignored the attack on the group. This is not like the old man's style. Unless there is a real danger, the old man will never give in, for decades. Li Taineng covered the sky with one hand in Chaotang, and he never lacked challenged opponents. That one was not eventually killed by Li Taiwan! The old woman looked dull,
　　
"This kind of thing. The emperor didn't do it. Last time, if it wasn't for the Zhang family who paid a large sum of money to fill the financial hole, how could my phoenix be excluded! Similarly, if the Zhang family missed the foundation of the rich Why did the emperor give a death order to the Zhang family to fight in Beijing, leaving a bunch of orphans and widows. In order to die from the Zhang family man, in order not to be affected by the emperor's fiasco, the ups and downs are only a few titles, the money Most of them naturally fell into the emperor’s pockets.
Li Tai smiled bitterly at the corner of his mouth, his beard trembling slightly, and the fingers with blue tendons were clenched tightly together suddenly, and the sound of the carriage moving outside the door came gradually, Li, gradually away, Li I tried too hard to listen, but it eventually became silent,
　　
　　 "You lied to me! Let go. I want to open the door!"
　　
　　The old lady seemed to perceive something, and was anxious and ruined. She also knew that she had been taken by Li Tai. Decades of husband and wife, who do not know who, Li Tai rarely tells her this, dirty and weird in the hall, stormy waves, has always said that there are Li's men to carry. But today, few say so much. This old thing is dragging on time!
　　
　　 "Leave. My phoenix is ​​gone! If you want the blood of the Li family to die, go chase!"
　　
Mrs. Li stood up from the Taishi chair, took an axe from behind the Taishi chair, bent down and placed it on the edge of the door, and his head did not go into the inner hall. "Since the emperor made up his mind to marry the concubine, he naturally would not let go After the Li family, Yuehua left, and there are other Li family women, such as Li Long's daughter Li Qingxianyan, 16 years old, beautiful and beautiful, known as Li Jiatianxiang, chose Li Long as the future owner of the Li family, not necessarily As the rumor goes, the Li family wants to throw away the text from the martial arts, but if the Li family wants to save it, they must put themselves in a position that makes the emperor feel absolutely at ease!"
　　
　　Wulingpo
　　
The morning sun rises, and the morning light shines from the edge of the yellow earth, gradually illuminating the rivers, mountains and plains in the front. The plains are lush, just like a new layer of gold has been washed again. Yang Ziqi was on the war horse, staring at the land in front of him. A black line was heading in the direction of Wulingpo. The queue was rolling like a black sweep across the ground, and the dust raised by the horseshoes covered the front. In the sky, it was the cavalry of the prairie army. Countless cavalry came across the mountain extension of the Wuling like a huge fan, and the start of a team stopped.
　　
The morning breeze blew through, and the scale armor of the prairie people thundered as if in their ears. The prairiemen’s cavalry lined up in long lines, shining with metallic luster under the golden light of the sun. It appeared in the distance, from a distance, it looked like a block that suddenly appeared on the wall of the hilly area. After the cavalry arrived, there began to appear infantry. These infantry were already covered with armor. The weapons in their hands are all but heavy. Weapons, two-handed axe, mace, long-handled spear gun, Yang Zi's eyebrows are tightly screwed together, how can he not see, these are the weapons of Centralbia, most of the prairie people are scimitars, Occasionally equipped with a bayonet, there is no such systematic stepping weight
　　
　　 "When did Dijing's reinforcements arrive?" Yang Zi waved a horsewhip in his hand and angrily asked the adjutant behind him
　　
"The messenger has already been dispatched and should be able to arrive before noon!" The adjutant's expression respectfully replied, "According to the report of the scout, the grassland army did not rush forward through Surabaya, but stopped at the beach of Surabaya for five full feet. At this time, during this time, the main force of the Prairie Army arrived in Sishui. After waiting for all the reinforcements to pass through Surabaya, the Prairie Army slowly entered. At this time, the Prairie Army’s strength has increased from the original army of 50,000. Rose to the current total strength of 110,000 people."
　　
　　 "110,000 people!"
　　
Yang Zi's face changed, and the hand holding the whip was tightened unconsciously. It would be nice if the rifle team was still there. Yang Zi now regrets that he has lost Sishui too hastily, if Sishui is still in his own hands, The prairie people will never gather so many troops so easily, and they will overwhelm them in one breath. In a blink of an eye, the number of prairie troops has doubled. Launch an attack, even in a terrain like Wulingpo, you will feel the pressure!
　　
"Sir, the Wuling is very dangerous, and the prairie people should not attack it!" The adjutant has no bottom in mind. Although Wuling is a slope, it is actually more appropriate to be called the edge of the mountain range. The falling cliff mountains that traversed across came into contact and formed such a gradually uplifted slope. The only road that could pass through the was already stuck by the Central Asian Army.
　　
Supported by a huge slope, the middle-African army that stuck the road built a layer of barricades, and also used mountain stones to build a three-meter stone wall at the top of the slope, staring at the plain below. A spear is like a forest, and a battle flag is like blood. From time to time, you can see a huge catapult bow pushed into the front of the camp. The typical topography of a husband who is off the ground is not. The problem is that the disparity in strength is really large, 30,000 to eleven. Wan, the other party is a prairie army who can dismount and fight. If it is really hard, Wulingpo may not be able to break through. Now I can only pray that the reinforcements of the emperor’s side can arrive in time.
　　
In the distance, a team of prairie cavalry jumped up a slope. Yelvuda pointed to the area like a huge sloping surface uplift, and there was a passage that seemed so small, and he looked excitedly said, "Father, in front is Wulingpo ! 80,000 Qingqi and 30,000 pawns, as long as they can break the roadblocks piled up by the Central Biya, they can launch a full-scale attack!"
　　
"Qi Yeguang, are you sure?" Yelv Hongtai glanced at the Wuling Slope in the distance with the mountains of Zhongbia, and turned his head to look at Yelv Qiye behind him. More than ten imperial thunder gods were being pushed up by the prairie people. On the slope, there were more than a dozen terrified Central Asian soldiers who were also pushed up by the grassland military knife,
　　
　　 "Rao Ming, what should be said, we really did not hide!"
　　
A Central Abyssinian soldier kneeled on the ground in tears, and the other Central Abyssian soldiers leaned on the ball in horror, looking at the scimitars around them, their faces were scared. They were all looted by somehow. It was a soldier who was responsible for operating the Empire Thor. After a few days of training by the Empire, one person only hit one shot, and then accompanied Thor to the front line. He only understood the most basic operations and had no experience. After losing Thor, it really happened. Filled by Yang Zi as a logistic force, it was easily retrieved by the submerged Yetan Gudie, because the time was too tight. It took several days to catch these soldiers. Go on
　　
Yelu Hongtai decided that the Thor's test shot was placed on the battlefield, just in Wulingpo. In addition to the dozen or so Central Asian soldiers, more than 30 grassland soldiers were also watching the Central Asians intently.~www. EbookFREE.me~ These are the folks of Yetan Gudie. They are used to learn how to operate Thor. Most of them know Mandarin Chinese and have some experience in ordnance manufacturing.
　　
Yelv Qiyeguang gestured behind him. A prairie sergeant pointed to a thunder that had been placed and said in a skilled Chinese language, "A group of three, who can launch, who can live." This is The first shot of the Empire Thor in the battlefield of Centralbia. When the trembling soldiers of Centralbia threw the Thor bomb into the barrel of Thor, roughly estimated the distance. The soldiers behind The mouth was raised towards the sky, and in the front was the direction of the waving of the Central-Afghan army flag. The prairie people only asked them to shoot out, and they did not ask for anything else. The soldiers of Centralbia ignited the gunpowder lead with a torch.
　　
Yelu Hongtai stood 30 meters away from Thor, looking at the line of fire ignited by gunpowder, red dazzling, his hands clenched into fists unconsciously, the power of the Empire Thor, he was just what Yelv Qi Yeguang said, true Is that powerful?
　　
The huge roar of "Rumble" caused Yelu Hongtai's body to tremble slightly, and the whip in his hand fell to the ground at once. Many grassland people around him fell down from the horse, and they saw a fire blast from Thor's muzzle. Out, the pungent, strong smell of sulfur, an arc light trace was drawn in the void, Thor's base wheel was moved backwards on the dirt platform, and a huge trace was launched. "Booming" seemed to respond the same, falling At the point, the red beam rolled up, the object flew up, and under the stunned sight of everyone, the flag of Zhongbia flew into the sky.
